Any Tips

Once its finished what do you guys do, buy or recommend. Someone told me not to install emblems for a month to let the paint cure. I noticed some people install theirs, whats the consensus.
 
If you don't mind...how much did it set you back for a quality paint job like you are getting cost? Thanks
Looks like they are doing a great job.
Also how long have they had it?

The cost is 10,500:eek::eek:.....This car should have never been restored but I fell in love with it and wanted to put it back to original. The time frame was a 3 month turn around and they are on schedule. They are doing a 60 something corvette,68camaro,57chevy truck also. The guys are straight forward and great to work with.
I didnt get a chance to get any pictures after the block and buff but its turning out pretty good.
 
A few more trim pieces...

getting there

Did they remove the trim, bumpers, glass, etc. or did you? Will they put everything back together? Did they miss the antenna? Looks real nice, keep posting pics.

I drove it there complete minus the interior. They removed every piece and will install every piece minus the interior. They removed the base around the antenna also. I ran into a snag with one of my bumber fillers not fitting correctly:mad::mad:sooo hopefully I can find one.
